Relationships with Other Tables
The primary relationship is through the REGID field, which links to the reg_by_service
table for patient demographics. Laboratory tests recorded in the LAB field may have detailed results in the lab
table. Additionally, reproductive health services may lead to family planning services, creating a relationship with the fp
table.
